Day ticket waters are good you can nip to one for a few hours and get some good sport - abolishing them is not the answer IMO.
Clubs/syndicates are just as bad, it just depends on who fishes them - some of the day ticket waters I've fished have been by far the cleanist!
Littering though is a pet hate of mine - my daughter of 4 was disgusted to see rubish all over a swim on a club lake even though the swim had a bin right behind it "why dont they clean up dad"? - to make matters worse the so called angler did well during his session, but even that didnt make him want to show it any respect.
Its got to be up to management and fellow anglers to ban those people for a short time, to think of their actions and for us anglers to set a good example.
I take an ashtray with me and binbags they are always in my tackle bag - when I leave a swim I always look back to make sure that nobody would know I've been there!
